I would recommend taking this seriously

I have seen what happens when a JetStream user allows themselves to
be used as an FTP relay.

It is not pretty.

Interestingly the hackers were France, Belgium and Germany based? I
wonder if this says something about their psyche?

I am unsure if this was the best way for John Burns to point this out
but as Aardvark points out, what choice did he have?

regards,

P
